I couldn't move! I began to notice just how hidious snails are. With their ugly grey shells and oozzy bodies. And since that day, I have never been able to look at a snail the same way again. My house was destroyed, my boyfriend was a dog, and I was living on the moon. All because of snails. So you really can't believe me for being afraid of them.
